Hanging with Mom

She is here as I type this as is Jenny (and now my) Aunt Sharon. This is the first time she has been able to get over here to see our humble little on campus apartment. Mike (Jenn's dad for those who don't know) and I went and picked mom up this morning, then went to Portland International Aiport and picked up Mike's father who was in town for the day. Mom, Mike, Grandpa, Jenny and myself all went to La Terazza for lunch. Good times for sure. We took some pics and Mike dropped Jenny, mom, and myself off at home before spending a few hours with his dad. Aunt Sharon came over shortly after we got home and spent the afternoon with Mom, Jenny and myself. Jenny whipped up a tasty salmon dinner and we enjoyed some quality time together. Mom had a great day and was able to see this blog for the first time. A great day. Here she is with our cat Gatsby.

Here is a pic of (L to R) mom, me, Jen, Grandpa, and Mike in front of our apartment on PSU campus.
We had a great time. Mom wants to say something since she is here and can contribute to this herself.

I just want to thank all of you for your love, support, prayers, and kindess that you have given me during this trying time of my life. I am hoping to hear some positive results from the CT scan that I have on Friday. I am doing my best to approach this whole cancer thing with a positive attitude. Being in all your thoughts and prayers does a lot to help me with that. Thank you so very much and I greatly appreciate your continuing support. I feel that with all of your support and my positive attitude that beating this cancer is a possibility. Thank you and stay tuned for the results next week from the CT.

with deepest gratitude,
Love,
Nora
